STScI Visitor Parking

Visitor parking at the Space Telescope Science Institute is extremely limited. Information on available parking is listed below. Visitors should avoid parking in Johns Hopkins University lots and on-street parking near STScI. Visitors parking in these locations risk ticketing and/or towing of their vehicle. Conference and workshop participants staying at local hotels are encouraged to use the STScI-sponsored shuttle service which provides door-to-door service from these hotels to the Space Telescope Science Institute.

JHU Lot 67

Metered parking is available in JHU Lot 67, approximately 500 feet north of the Space Telescope Science Intitute on San Martin Drive. The cost is $2/hour, with a maximum of $8 for all day. Please be advised that the number of metered spaces is very limited.

Visitors to STScI may obtain a hang tag from the front desk if the hosting employee/department has made advance arrangements for visitor parking and the visitor's name has been provided to front desk staff. Visitors who have made arrangements for a hang tag should go to the STScI front desk on arrival, obtain the tag, then proceed to to Lot 67. Due to limited availability of parking on the JHU campus, it may not be possible for STScI staff members to reserve parking for your visit.
